North Warning System - Heavy Fixed Wing Airlift Services (Update NAICS & Add Question)

The Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command seeks to award a follow-on contract to provide heavy fixed wing airlift services in support of the North Warning System. Offerors must demonstrate experience operating aircraft capable of transporting at least 45,000 pounds with a 5,000 foot unimproved runway and fuel. The draft Performance Work Statement will serve as the basis for evaluation. Interested parties must submit capability statements by March 1, 2021 outlining their experience, assets, and ability to provide all required personnel, services, equipment, facilities, and materials.

There is no set-aside designated for this procurement. The NAICS code is 481211 for nonscheduled air transportation. The current incumbent provides these services transporting cargo and personnel between over 50 radar sites in Canada and the United States from July to September each year. The Air Force intends to award a one year base contract with four one-year options starting in May 2021 to continue logistical support of the North Warning System mission.
